I think the Cubs actually got a pretty good deal, they dumped a player who everyone from the fans to the players to management hated and got a good player and prospects in return. From what ESPN says, he's a crappy teammate and a moody guy who's in the twilight of a steriod-induced career, not to mention that he's had a history of injury the past few years. I really did enjoy the '98 season with Sosa and Big Mac going after the HR record, and I appreciate that it rejuvinated baseball, but in the long run, the Cubs proved they couldn't win a pennant with him.
